Petition to End Recent Ad Banners

[DiceX]

Dear Collector Society,

 

We respectfully request that you end the posting of ad banners from our message boards.

 

This is a place where members communicate with each other.

 

The ads are a distraction and have to be scrolled past. They are not even beautiful.

 

We believe that you will not let the lure of advertising dollars distract you. You have a relationship with your members. Remember us.

 

Do not let the lure of money entice you to lower the quality of our experience.

 

We believe you will make a good decision. Thank you.

 

 

Is that all you do? Whine and person_without_enough_empathy?

Let me guess...you're single.

Your screen name sucks nuts, whoever you are.

 

Aunt Agatha sucks nuts?

 

 

 

She's not popular because of her peach cobbler recipe.

 

 

How badly do I want a wrist slap...

 

 

[mackenzie999]

But I'm ok with it. Mainly cause I just adblock it.

 

Why adblock when you can bitsch and moan individually on every site that offends your delicate sensibilities about ads that aren't even beautiful?

I'm just putting this here, so I know where to find it later.

I propose putting personal ads in each post, that way in about a week's time, people will come to appreciate the small ads on the side, rather than complain about them.

Too Subtle.

[The Troll King]

If the Ads are necessary...

 

I'd rather have the Ads than CGC charge sellers a percentage to sell here.

 

 

 

I'm ok with both.

 

This reminds me of an old saying.

 

Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.

 

Let me expand on this...

I could give a mess about the ads on here. It's the internet, it's full of them. I don't care about adblocking either, because frankly, as I said, I could give a mess.

 

Secondly, yes, charge people to sell here. I have my own reasons for why but honestly, I'm surprised it hasn't already happened considering the 10's of 1000's of dollars that have changed hands around here.

You think? Maybe it should be bigger?

It's not flashing either.

[Dr. Balls]

OOO flashing. That might be something. Let me work on that...

It doesn't make noise. Can it make noise?

[Dick Pontoon]

Apparently not. You don't like looking at ads? I have a classic joke for you:

 

Patient: "Doctor, it hurts when I do this."

Doctor: "Then don't do that."

 

 

That reminds me of a joke.

 

A stage actor drops dead in the middle of performance; paramedics rush to the stage and administer CPR. While doing so, a woman in the audience yells out “Give him an enema!” which the team ignores. After a few more minutes with no result, the woman again yells out “Give him an enema!” The paramedics, although annoyed, again ignore the woman. After another minute, she yells out again “Give him an enema!” Angry and flustered, the main medic turns to her and shouts “Lady, this man has just dropped dead from a heart attack, an enema won’t help!” to which the woman responds “Well, it couldn’t hurt!”

At this moment, 65% of us would like the ads removed.

 

35% of us would like the ads to stay.

[Dr. Balls]

Here we go!

Don't forget to factor in the people who want in-post advertising. I'm all for that. Metro offered to pay me HUGE money for this ad, but I told 'em I'd do it for free, because I'm a good guy.

I say we test the accuracy of the poll.
